M. Simms:
As I re-read your comments I realize that I have no concept
what to do. I get my data from e-signal, for what that is worth. But, I am at a
loss on how to access the Universe.mdb data base. I download other
symbols from HistoryBank without any problems. I have the Dow Jones
future index in my Global Server, but apparently this is not enough. I
appreciate your assistance but frankly am at a loss to do as you
suggest. I will be going online with real time data next week and possibly
the YM will take when I connect to e-signal again.

Subject: RE: [RT] HistoryBank symbol for
Dow Jones Mini
Did you insure
there is a row in the FUTURE table in the Universe.mdb database as well
?
Note: The keys
to this table are: symbol, datavendor, exchange. ALL MUST MATCH THE IMPORT
DATA SOURCE !

You are
probably missing a row with the proper datavendor number that associates with
the "History Bank" data source.
<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>
Typical
datavendor numbers are:
<FONT color=#0000ff
size=2>15,56,55,0,1,2,4,5,127
I believe the
History Bank is either 55 or 56.
Keep in mind,
all of this technical information is largely undocumented, and no longer
available from the original vendor who no longer supports
TS2000i.
Also, remember,
that any OMZ or XPO file that you use as an import source, has a particular
datavendor number stored in the header of that file.
If you attempt
to import to a data vendor you do not have stored as associated with the
symbol to be imported,
you will get no
data imported.

HistoryBank symbol for Dow Jones Mini
I did all this, added the symbol and the contract
date in the Symbol Portfolio. When I download, the Global Server indicates
that it is downloading data, but when I go to the edit data, its states "no
data available. Is there a file that can be accessed that will show whether
any data has been downloaded?
Many thanks for your help.
John

John - you must add a record to the SymbolTranslation
table in theTranslator.mdb database that resides in your Universe
subdirectory.Just clone another CBOT symbol in the table and change
the symbol to YM.Otherwise, you won't be able to add it no matter what
the data source.> -----Original Message-----> From:
